No one cowers when Farage speaks. They laugh at him.
Try telling that to David Cameron.
He learned to his great cost not to take Nigel Farage lightly.
Probably the most successful politician of his generation.
It's such a shame for the German car manufacturers that we haven't been able to get a deal. Don't like to see people lose their jobs.
German automotive industry exported 769,000 cars to the UK last year, its single largest export market. The US came second with 494,000 cars.
Daimler-Benz recently issued a profit warning, and this only in relationship to the expected rise in Chinese tariffs on Mercedes cars made in the US
If the UK were forced into a cliff-edge hards Brexit in March, the German car industry would face tariffs in its two largest export markets within a few months of each other, the US could impose a 25% tariff, and any British tariff would start at the WTO 10% automatic tax, but Britain could follow the US and impose far higher tariffs.
The EU will also for go the £40 Billion payment that Britain was going to make on reaching a deal, and in terms of finance jobs leaving London, NYC would be the main recipient, although much of London's financial trade is related to the US and Far East rather than Europe.
The UK and London is currently seeing vast investment by tech companies and fintechs with a host of vast offices throughout London, and fintech is not reliant on national borders or agreements and they are very much the future of finance.

I say clean break. Come what may let's keep that £40 billion and trade with Asia, Latin America, re-establish stronger trade links with Canada/Aus/NZ/India and pursue a US trade deal.

I have said the same from the start. It's a waste of time trying to negotiate with the EU. For all their words of compromise, they want to make an example of us. It's how to screw us,and still get the pay off money.
I saw on the news today,Theresa May is taking over control of negotiations. Her new boy replacing David Davies, is being sidelined. Gawd help us, she hasn't got a clue.
If it's up to her, and her remain cronies, we will be stuck in a limbo of not being in the EU, and not being genuinely out. Worse result possible. I keep hoping she will be removed, and we get someone with guts in charge. I don't see the leader in waiting anywhere.

Ford models are the most selling cars in the UK. Any impact of No-deal Brexit, Trump Tariffs on prcing of cars, jobs in UK ?

LOL, LA and Asia don't want to trade with the UK.
